Full Moon…

Have you been trying to get focussed recently but just cannot seem to get your shit together?! Are you feeling out of sorts? Are you tossing and turning all night but that active little brain of yours wont let you sleep? Yeah me too BUT never fear my lovelies, you are not spiralling out of control, you are just reacting to PMS or Pre Moon Syndrome (Yes I totally just made that up, but the concept behind it is a thing.)

I’m sure there are many of you out there that think all this moon controlling your moods is a load of bull crap but let’s just take a second to think about what the moon CAN do and what has been scientifically proven.

Well mainly the moon moves the sea. That little glowy mystical circle of light in our night sky physically moves gigantic bodies of water with its super strong gravitational pull. Now with that in mind, and considering our bodies are made up of around 70% water, it would be crazy to assume that the moon does NOT effect us.

I know right! This simply put concept was told to me by Semra from mama moon recently and it blew my mind! Of course…. It makes SO much sense!

Much like us ladies the moon has a monthly cycle, so basically we are mini earth moons? I’m sure that’s correct *insert moon face emoji here*. On a full and a new moon the moon and the sun are working in conjunction making the gravitational pull on earth and ultimately on us a lot stronger!

Now clearly I’m no expert on this but I find it fascinating, so if I’m slightly off on anything please let me know in the comments.

According to a couple of articles I’ve read, the increased pressure and pull on the earth can cause an increase in the strength of negative energies; this is why everyone is bat shit crazy around a new or full moon. This is also why we need to be more aware of when they occur in order to explain our changes in mood and not beat ourselves up about it.

The full moon and increased frequencies can cause your subconscious mind to play all sorts of tricks on you and it will heighten whatever you have lurking around in there. Be kind to yourself at this time! The phrase “It’s not me it’s the moon” may come in handy.

The main difference between a full moon and a new moon is light. To clarify, a full moon is when the earth see’s the illuminating side where a new moon is when we are shown the dark side. It is currently full moon time, with the transition happening this evening and the actual full moon being present tomorrow. This increased illumination and heightened activity of the mind can work in your favour so if you have any projects on the horizon, now is the time to do it.

It is also a great time to cleanse any crystals you may have, leave them on the windowsill and let the moon light do it’s thing.

But for those of you who want to get more involved, if you want a deeper connection with the moon and the universe, here is a little ritual that Semra sent me which you can try out tomorrow evening ….

The full moon thing that I was telling you about is a lovely way to connect with the moon when it’s full.

Get a bowl of water ( even better if its water that has been infused with crystals like rose quartz or Amethyst.

Hold the bowl with water to reflect the moons light in the water… allow the moon light to connect with the water … after a few minutes place your hands

In the water and let them dry naturally … you will feel the power of the moon on your finger tips… I also bottle this water and put a little splash on myself when I need a bit of extra power!

I’m excited for you to try it out, so simple and so effective.

This all blows my mind… Our planet, our solar system, our universe is such an amazing thing and to truly be able to connect to the elements is a beautiful concept.

Let me know if you give this a try either and if you have any interesting thoughts, concepts or articles around this subject please share!!
